So if one is married to an H1B Visa holder as a Canadian, what is the best approach to obtaining immigrant status in the US? I currently am in the United States with my Canadian passport on a visitor visa, but I need to go back to Canada for a little while to do things like pack up my apartment and all that.
I know that what I need is to gain H4 status. Would it be better to return to the United States on a visitor visa again and then apply for a status change, or should I pursue this visa through the embassy so that I can enter the country with H4?
I do want to have employment authorization, but that doesn't need to necessarily happen immediately.
Any guidance would be very much appreciated.
